If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

The bearing just drops down the shaft and presses on the last part as you surmise.
They are a pig to remove.
The book says to first grind away two sides of the seal ring (this is easy but time consuming: a coloured stripe appears as the metal gets paper thin due to heating) then use a chain puller from the end of the halfshaft down to the bearing, but I don't have one, so it was smash the race and heat grind and pull the inner race off.

Thanks, seems it might be worth considering a DIY press. I wouldn't mind carrying a bottle jack as it would have a dual role, 4 pieces of angle iron plus two lengths of strip steel could be made to work as a press.
